It's been a fun-filled week with Grandma. The kids got Friday off (teacher prep), which meant even more one on one time. Art projects, making cookies, reading books, getting spoiled when we went shopping... that's what happens when Grandma visits :)
When the kids were in school, Grandma was either sleeping in or working on small projects with me. We had a couple of craft sessions with my neighbors (finally got everyone to finish the wreaths from the craft day!) and devised a project for ourself by "upcycyling" an old Tshirt and pair of jeans for Kaitlyn. We've had some great fall weather here this week. All the leaves are changing colors and it's beatiful. I need to take the camera out for some photos. It must also be time to harvest the cotton around here, which is something we've never experienced. The day they were harvesting the field right next to us we took Tyler for a walk to check them out. I hate walking across the weeds and stuff in the empty lots but Mom and Tyler went right up to the fence to watch for a minute. Four combines and a couple trailors working on one little field - impressive.
Project 365 is simply a year in photos. Too often I find myself with a camera in hand during the big events, but miss so much of the every day stuff. So I am challenging myself to take one photo every single day. A photo of everyday life. I'm warning you now, some of them won't be all that interesting. And very few of them will be something I will want to hang on the wall. But it's my life.
And if my little project inspires you to start a 365 of your own, please let me know!
*updated for 2010: While I love the concept of the the photo EVERY DAY, it's not exactly easy to keep it up for long periods of time. So I'm switching so weekly posts of around 2-5 photos per week.
